Abstract
This qualitative case study addressed instructional practices used by third-grade teachers teaching at Title I schools to provide strategies to teach higher-order thinking skills in reading comprehension. In Texas, third-grade students were required to take the reconstructed STAAR assessment at the end the 2022–2023 school year. The teachers interviewed in this study currently taught third-grade students who were in first grade during the 2020–2021 school year, when schools and classrooms were affected by mandated COVID-19 safety protocols. Therefore, the third-grade students had begun their educational journey in first grade during the onset of the COVID pandemic. Five third-grade teachers teaching at Title I schools at a Texas independent school district took part in interviews to discuss their instructional practices.
